Browsing the Ebay site today I found the following:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Kodak-Super-8-Cine-Movie-Film-Processing-Service_W0QQitemZ230005653192QQihZ013QQcategoryZ1476QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
what do members make of it? To me seems a bit expensive.

Bah humbug. [Roll Eyes]

Well, it looks like this guy is merely offering to receive your films and forward them to whatever processing lab is appropriate, anywhere in the world, so you don't have to worry about shipping out-of-country and making international payments and such. It's not a new processing service in and of itself... just someone's attempt to earn some pocket money on the side. Moreover, he says to simply contact him outside of eBay (no bid needed) which is actually prohibited by current eBay policy. That means the listing could be reported by another member and pulled by eBay. (If that does happen, just know it wasn't me because I'm not going to bother) [Razz]

Looks like ebay have removed the listing.
